Twilight Sparkle Quotes in My Little Pony: The Movie (2017)

[from trailer]

Twilight Sparkle: It's... It's the Magic of...

The Storm King: Yeah, yeah! Friendship and flowers and ponies! Bleh!

[from trailer]

Twilight Sparkle: I'm Princess Twilight Sparkle, and this is my home, Equestria. A land filled with magic, music, and most importantly, friendship! Life is perfect. I mean, what could possibly go wrong?

[from trailer]

Twilight Sparkle: I mean, princess? No pressure. Luckily, I have amazing friends who are there for me no matter what.

[Pinkie's party cannon sets off a five-layer cake that lands on Twilight]

Twilight Sparkle: Pinkie!

Twilight Sparkle: The way Sunset Shimmer described them, I think these new girls sound an awful lot like... the sirens.

Pinkie Pie: Not the sirens!

[whispering loudly to Fluttershy]

Pinkie Pie: I don't actually know what that is!

Twilight Sparkle: Now that we're all back together, we can use that magic on the sirens. Just like when we were able to use it on Sunset Shimmer when she turned into that horrifyingly awful winged monster! No offense.

Sunset Shimmer: [disgruntled] None taken.

[happily]

Sunset Shimmer: I'm used to it.

Twilight Sparkle: Alright, girls, let's do this! Friendship is magic!

[nothing happens]

Rainbow Dash: Uh, weren't there rainbows and lasers and stuff last time?

Rainbow Dash: I hate to burst your bubble, Twilight, but the connection between their world and Equestria will still be totally cut off for a super-long time.

Pinkie Pie: Okay, first of all, if there was any bubble-blowing going on, why wasn't I told about it? And secondly, if the connection is totally cut off, how was Sunset Shimmer able to get a message to Twilight?

Twilight Sparkle: [gasps] Pinkie, you're a genius!

Pinkie Pie: Yeah, I get that a lot.

[to Rainbow Dash]

Pinkie Pie: Now about those bubbles!

Maud Pie: Boulder was hungry.

Sunset Shimmer: I still can't get over the fact that she's related to Pinkie Pie.

Twilight Sparkle: You and me both.

Twilight Sparkle: We really need to stop bumping into each other like this.

Flash Sentry: [to bandmates] Uh, you guys hear something?

Bandmates: Nope, etc.

Twilight Sparkle: I said, we have to stop...

Flash Sentry: There it is again! So annoying!

Sunset Shimmer: [a while into the Dazzlings' performance and the Rainbooms' arguing] Stop! You have to stop!

[They suddenly stop arguing]

Sunset Shimmer: This is what they've been after all along! They're feeding off the magic inside you!

Applejack: How can they be using our magic? It's the magic of friendship!

Sunset Shimmer: Ever since you started this band, you've been letting... little things get to you. I didn't say anything because I didn't feel like it was my place. Not when I'm so new to this friendship thing. I still have a lot to learn. But I do know that if you don't work out even the smallest problems right at the start, the magic of friendship can be turned into something else.

Twilight Sparkle: I can't believe all this tension was happening right under my nose and I didn't realize it. I'm supposed to be the one with all the answers, and all I've done since I got here is let you down.

Sunset Shimmer: I don't think anyone is supposed to have all the answers. But you can count on your friends... to help you find them.

Twilight Sparkle: I think you already have. Come on, we need to get out of here!

[They all push themselves up at once at the door to no avail, they collapse to the floor, then a knock on the door is heard, then it opens, Spike standing outside]

Twilight Sparkle: Spike!

[Picks him up and hugs him]

Spike: Sorry I took so long. I had to find someone who wasn't under The Sirens' spell to help me get you out.

[Vinyl Scratch comes into view]

Twilight Sparkle: Why isn't she under their spell?

Spike: Never takes off her headphones.

[Vinyl Scratch does a "thumbs up" and smiles]

Twilight Sparkle: Maybe it doesn't even matter that we're trapped down here. I don't think the counter spell would have worked anyway.

Applejack: 'Course is woulda worked, Twilight!

[Turns to look at Rainbow Dash]

Applejack: Assumin' a certain band member didn't try to hog the spotlight whole time we were tryin' to play it!

Rainbow Dash: Hey! If want to tell Twilight she's getting to a little too caught trying to be the new leader of this band, you don't have to be all criptic about it.

Rarity: She was talking about *you*, Rainbow Dash!

Rainbow Dash: Me! I'm just trying to make sure my band rocks as hard as it needs to.

Applejack, Rarity: Our band!

Twilight Sparkle: But why wasn't it working? I should know what to do. How can I not know what to do? How can I have failed like this?

Applejack: It might have been your idea to start a band. But it's not just your band, Rainbow Dash!

Rainbow Dash: I'm the one who writes all the songs!

Fluttershy: I write songs. You just never let us *play* any of them!

Rarity: I had *the* most perfect outfits for us to wear.

Applejack: Again with the costumes! Nobody cares what we're wearin'!

Rarity: I care, Applejack! So sorry if I enjoy trying to make a creative contribution to the band!

Pinkie Pie: Hey! Anybody here remember fun!

[shouting at the top of her lungs]

Pinkie Pie: I'll give you a hint! It's the exact opposite of being in the rain booms!

Rainbow Dash: I wish I'd never asked any of you to be in my band!

Rarity: I wish I'd never agreed to be in it!

Applejack, Fluttershy: Me neither!

[All except for Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle start arguing incoherently as their negative energy and distrust starts to drift up towards the stage where The Dazzlings are about to perform at as Sunset Shimmer starts to look concerned]

Princess Celestia: Sunset Shimmer, is she all right?

Twilight Sparkle: I think she's going to be fine. I left her in good hands.

Rainbow Dash: What are hands?

Twilight Sparkle: [last lines; talking about Flash Sentry] Don't be ridiculous. I don't even know him. He just...

Pinkie Pie: Totally reminds you of a guy you met in the other world who played guitar, was in a band, and helped prove you didn't destroy all the decorations for a big dance, so you could still run for princess of the big dance, and asked you to dance at that dance!

[big breath]

Pinkie Pie: Right?

Twilight Sparkle: How did you know that?

Pinkie Pie: Just a hunch.

[squee]

Twilight Sparkle: Looks like if I want my crown back, I'll have to become Princess of the Canterlot High Fall Formal. So that's what I'm gonna do!

Spike: And how exactly do you plan on doing that?

Twilight Sparkle: I have no idea!

Flash Sentry: So, uh, I was wondering. If you aren't already going with somebody, wanna go to the Fall Formal with me tomorrow night?

Twilight Sparkle: That would be... Tomorrow night? No, no no no no no, no no no no no! Nonononono! I can't! The portal! That'll be too late!

Flash Sentry: One "no" would have been fine!

Twilight Sparkle: You will never rule in Equestria. Any power you had in this world is gone. But tonight, you showed everyone who you really are. You showed them what is in your heart.

Sunset Shimmer: [tearfully] I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I didn't know there was another way.

Twilight Sparkle: The magic of friendship just doesn't exist in Equestria, it's everywhere. You can seek it out! Or you will forever be alone. The choice is yours.

Sunset Shimmer: But all I ever done since being here was drive everyone apart. I don't know the first thing about friendship.

Twilight Sparkle: [gets Sunset up] I bet they could teach you.

Twilight Sparkle: But the fall formal *has* to happen tonight.

[sighs]

Twilight Sparkle: You see...

Pinkie Pie: You're from an alternate world and you're a pony princess there and the crown *actually* has a magical element embedded in it that helps power up other magical elements and without it they don't work anymore, and you need them all to help protect your magical world, and if you don't get the crown tonight, you'll be stuck in *this* world and you won't be able to get back for like a really, really long time!

[squee]

Rainbow Dash: So what's the plan? How can I help you be princess instead of Sunset Shimmer?

Twilight Sparkle: But... but I... lost!

Rainbow Dash: Of course you lost. I'm awesome! But I'm not going to ask just anyone to try and beat Sunset Shimmer. The Fall Formal Princess should be someone with heart and determination. You've proved that you've got 'em both!

Twilight Sparkle: I'm glad you followed me here, Spike.

Spike: Me too... Unless of course we get stuck here for another thirty moons.

Rarity: Twilight! Oh, sorry, darling, but I just realized you're not wearing your crown. You haven't forgotten it back in Ponyville, have you?

Twilight Sparkle: It's in my bag. Just feel a little self-conscious about wearing it. Haven't really gotten accustomed to these yet, either.

Rarity: You are a princess now, Twilight. Embrace it! I'm telling you, if I had a crown like that, I would never take it off. Why, I'd sleep in the thing.

Fluttershy: Oh, I'm really sorry. I-I just found it, and-and I thought I should give it to her. I didn't know you had dropped it.

Sunset Shimmer: Well, I did! And I was about to get it before you swooped in and ruined everything! You shouldn't pick up things that don't belong to you.

Fluttershy: [hushed] It... doesn't really belong to you, either.

Sunset Shimmer: Excuse me?

Fluttershy: N-n-nothing...

Sunset Shimmer: That's what I thought. It's as good as mine, and you know it. You really are pathetic. It's no wonder your best friends are all stray animals.

Twilight Sparkle: How dare you speak to her that way!

Sunset Shimmer: What did you say?

Twilight Sparkle: I said, "How dare you speak to her that way!"

Sunset Shimmer: You must be new here. I can speak to anyone any way I want.

[locker door shuts]

Twilight Sparkle: What did you do with my crown?

Sunset Shimmer: Sorry it had to be this way... Princess.

Sunset Shimmer: Can't believe I didn't recognize you earlier. Shoulda known Princess Celestia would send her prized pupil here after my crown, and her little dog, too.

Twilight Sparkle: It's my crown! Sunset Shimmer: Sunset Shimmer: Pop quiz: what happens when you bring an Element of Harmony into an alternate world? You don't know? Seriously?

[laughing]

Twilight Sparkle: And you're supposed to be Princess Celestia's star student? Then again, what were the chances she'd find somepony as bright as me to take under her wing after I decided to leave Equestria? Bit embarrassing that you were the best she could do.

Sunset Shimmer: Whatever. This is just a minor setback for me. You don't know the first thing about this place, and I already rule it. Twilight Sparkle: If that's so, why do you even need my crown? You went to an awful lot of trouble to switch it with the one that belongs here.

Twilight Sparkle: If that's so, why do you even need my crown? You went to an awful lot of trouble to switch it with the one that belongs here.

Sunset Shimmer: Pop quiz: what happens when you bring an Element of Harmony into an alternate world? You don't know? Seriously?

[laughing]

Sunset Shimmer: And you're supposed to be Princess Celestia's star student? Then again, what were the chances she'd find somepony as bright as me to take under her wing after I decided to leave Equestria? Bit embarrassing that you were the best she could do.

[Spike growls]

Sunset Shimmer: Oh, and I'd keep an eye on your mutt. Hate for him to be... taken away from you.

Spike: Is that a threat?

Sunset Shimmer: Oh, of course not.

[Spike barks]

Sunset Shimmer: But I'd cut down on the chatter if I were you. Don't want everyone to know you don't belong here, now would you? You wanna be a princess here? Please. You don't know the first thing about fitting in.
